Jennifer is a mother of eight kid. She owns and operates the parenting site as well as its supportive message forums that are just as mothers. /forum admin@simplymoms.com My son is a wonderful boy, one imaginative, lively four year old with a set of rules for life entire his own. The rules that keep his four year old outlooks in his outlook, the rules to life that make him, his own person. One of his “rules” is that his Elmo toy have to go to mattress with him every night. Sounds uncomplicated right? If you are the mama of a child like bomb you are snickering beneath your breath for you know…..one rule has many others spliced to it. These rules quit me each night in search of that ratty red little Elmo doll that my son so dearly loves. Elmo actually gets approximately for a doll… Elmo attends Owens breakfast,Nike Hyperdunk, perched in front of what ever cartoon tends to be blaring by that moment. Together they share a bowl of cereal for in, Owen spills it on the floor and uses needy Elmo apt erase up anyone milk. I have studied never apt query Owen why he spilt his cereal …because in his four annual age earth, Elmo did it never Owen! At the mart Elmo rides in the cart with Owen, of lesson Elmo can no reside in the two wagon. He jumps out at least 20 times merely it is a rule I must no know this until he is 3 islands away or until some matron in business attire gingerly hikes up with Elmo in hand and hands him off to me like a ailment , and fast hikes away…most presumable searching her purse for a Clorox wipe . The best game Elmo likes to play is bed time hide and seek. Owen perches on the corner of the bed, howling like a mad man who’s lost his best friend. So I franticly rip threw the house leaving no stone, couch or toy carton unturned,nike lunar shoes, flee our into the gloom to the motorcar tossing alongside coats snack wrappers and additional lost beloved lost toys. Back to the house retarding the dryer, backward the restroom. Frazzled, I return to the bed room to give my son the dreaded newspaper that Elmo is gone. There he is, my sweet tiny lad with his rosy angelical face, hugging his Elmo. For a moment I swear that Elmo is smiling as if to say “I was here from start to finish” © 2004-2005 Jennifer Gove This treatise was posted on March 21, 2004 |
